Hello Doubles League Members, 

 I hope everyone had a joyous, wonder-filled holiday season and that 2026 brings you good health, happiness, and good curling! 

SERIES 1 and 2 – 2025-26 SEASON

 Congratulations! We have reached the mid-way point of the season, marking the end of Series 1. I hope that you have enjoyed the fellowship and competition. At this point in the season, we reshuffle the deck and start Series 2. The schedule for week 1 of Series 2 [January 2, 6,7,8] will be randomly generated by the computer.

 Series 2 will conclude the week of March 20th.

 A big round of applause to the following teams that hold the most belt wins in their division at the end of Series 1:

Thunder: Double Trouble - 3 Belts

Challenger: Chittley-Youngs - 4 Belts

Slam: Tie - Tenacious P's & Matheson/Eddy - 3 Belts each

Rumble: Jackson Squared - 3 Belts

Crush: Eddy/Sawchenko - 4 Belts

Takedown: Warriner/Au - 4 Belts

Piledriver: The Uncle Al Show - 4 Belts

GAMES/LEAGUE FEE:

The $25 games fee per player per team will be added to your January 2026 statement. Fees go toward prizes for; the most Division Belt winners for the year, the Doublesmania V Events winners, and runners-up.  Note that if you are playing in 2 leagues [hence 2 teams], you will be charged $50.

DOUBLESMANIA V (Event that crowns Dundas Valley's Doubles Club Champion)

Stay tuned for more details in the coming weeks. All Division teams are presumed to participate in Doublesmania; however, I will give a window for teams to advise me that they do not intend to participate in Doublesmania V.  Those of you who play in more than one Division/team will need to choose which team member they will play with in the Bonspiel. You can only enter one team for Doublesmania.

TENTATIVELY: Doublesmania will start the week of March 24th, and conclude on Sunday, March 29th (if you make it there). Depending on the number of entries - Everyone’s first game could be during your usual draw time i.e. Tuesday, March 24th [2:30 pm, 5:15 pm. 6:45 pm or 8:15 pm], Wednesday, March 25th [2:30 pm], Thursday, March 26th [2:30 pm], and Friday, March 27th [5 pm]. The remaining games will be held on March 27th, 28th, and 29th [Friday evening, all day/evening Saturday, and the morning/afternoon of Sunday]. 

Based on last year’s feedback, the event will remain a 4-event bonspiel with a 1st event consolation.

Thank you again for your continued support.

Betty
